I remember making this with DBs, and although it looked really professional (that's swiss meringue buttercream for you: my mum said it looked like a wedding cake), when I tried it I was just like '...eh'. You know? It was just... cake. Meh.<br /><br />That said I wish I'd used cream cheese frosting like you: SMB tastes like eating a pillow.

The frosting though I have made so many times and always love it, no matter what the flavor.

I used my old trick of wrapping the still-warm cake well in plastic and then freezing to up the moisture factor the second time. It was better. If you want to know the real, real truth, I've found that most scratch white cakes just can't beat the moist fluffiness of a box mix (I know, I know, I can almost hear the groans of the baking blogging world as we speak for this blasphemy). I've just found that to be the case in *my* experience.<br /><br />Anyway, it sure looks good. That cranberry filling sounds wonderful with cream cheese icing.Jacquehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03444103522765747398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086092172497469041.post-49968921980560361592009-08-18T12:32:36.896-04:002009-08-18T12:32:36.896-04:00Wow it sure looks good, I love the idea of cranber...Wow it sure looks good, I love the idea of cranberry sauce in a Carrot Cake!Jenniferhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07873266372035209584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086092172497469041.post-66155605926746916802009-08-18T01:55:53.761-04:002009-08-18T01:55:53.761-04:00Isn't that such a let down?

The first time, I think I overcooked it and it wasn't as soft as I would like. Second time, didn't overcook it, but it was a clear hit. <br /><br />The thing that I like about the recipe is the lemon flavour. But, since you omitted that, I'm not sure that there's anything else that is particularly memorable about the recipe.PGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02160883537054763513noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8086092172497469041.post-53681560956872239612009-08-16T15:18:01.352-04:002009-08-16T15:18:01.352-04:00I made the PPC for DB a ways back.
